Pretty reasonable to respond to that series of events negatively. You can sign where you want but don't jerk the organization around.

Absolutely agreed. I think for a guy that seems fairly unassuming and quiet this was one of those giant life decisions that didn't have a perfect answer and like a lot of people would with 100 different voices in their ears, he waffled for too long and might've even panicked a bit. He said himself yesterday on Chiclets that he didn't enjoy any of the process and doesn't want to do free agency again.
